5. Refer to the Bit Lamp Object section for information on using the Shape tab. Note that it is
not required to use a shape or a bitmap. In some modes such as Set at window open or
Periodical JOG++ you may prefer to place the part on the window without a shape or bitmap
tied to it.
6. Refer to the Bit Lamp Object section for information on using the Label tab.
7. Click OK. The Create Set Word Object form closes and the main screen of EasyBuilder
appears with the cursor tied to a rectangular outline of the part you just created at the upper
left corner of the screen. Move the part to the desired location on the window.
8. Once the part is placed onto the window, you can adjust the location of the label inside the
part by clicking once on the label. This will highlight the entire object. Click on the label
again. Now only the label is highlighted, allowing you to move it without moving the part.
Note: if you double-click (click twice rapidly) then you will not highlight the label but rather
enter the Set Word Object’s Attribute dialog box.
The MultiState Switch Ob ject
The MultiState Switch Object is used to represent the value of one 16-bit PLC register while writing a 16-bit value
to the same or another PLC register each time the object is pressed. The object continuously reads one PLC register
and displays the corresponding shape or bitmap that is tagged to the defined states of the register. The touchscreen
object when pressed, executes the function that was assigned to it.
